I Threw It All Away Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]He's a set song singer
that [C]plays the gut stringer
[D]Dragonborn fingers that follow his [G]mind
To faraway places he [C]reaches and traces,
[D]touches the faces he long left be[G]hind.
He'll keep you from knowing
where [C]he's been or gone,
But [D]you'll see that distance
right there in his [G]eyes
And just short of scheming,
[C]he'll take that feeling
And [D]pull at those hard straws,
but they come un[G]twined
There [C]once was a woman
that [G]made him turn lonesome
Her [D]memory turns over and [G]over again
[C]Like an old stallion
that's longing [G]for freedom
Try[D]ing to outrun the [G]wind[C][G][D][G]
I've laughed with the sunshine
and [C]I've cried with the rain
[D]I've had some bad nights
with the best of the [G]blues
And I go on pretendin'
[C]for the long -haired women
But [D]I still get crazy when I think of y[G]ou
There [C]once was a woman
that [G]made me turn lonesome
Her [D]memories turned over and [G]over again
[C]Like an old stallion that's
[G]longing for freedom,
[D]trying to outrun the [G]wind.
I'm [C]like an old stallion
that's [G]longing for freedom,
[D]trying to outrun the [G]wind.
Just [D]try to outrun [G]the wind

[Outro 1]
